Swimming in the Adult pool for the first time

I've always liked Hippos. A friend from Cincinnati, where we used to live told me about their new Hippo exhibit and sent me a link to this video.  Most people think hippos are cute, but don't realize they are one of the most dangerous animals. I also think of Demi Moore and the movie Indecent Proposal whenever I see a hippo. It was a significant part of the story line with Woody Harrelson in the movie.  I also remember the first time I took a swim in the adult pool. I was about 9 months old and my mother took me to a mom and baby class at the YWCA. She set me on the edge and I took off and in I went, nearly drowned.
